The gross and microscopic features of a 28-week-old stillborn female infant with severe cranial, facial, and cerebral malformations due to amniotic bands are described. The structure of the cerebral remnant is similar to that found in dysraphic anencephaly, but collateral evidence of amniotic band can usually be found. It is important to differentiate between the two conditions, since unlike neural tube defects, anencephaly due to amniotic band does not imply a risk of recurrence in subsequent pregnancies.
描述了一名28周大的死产女婴的大体和微观特征，该女婴因羊膜带导致严重的颅骨、面部和脑部畸形。脑残余结构与神经管闭合不全性无脑畸形中所见相似，但通常可发现羊膜带的旁证。区分这两种情况很重要，因为与神经管缺陷不同，羊膜带导致的无脑畸形并不意味着后续妊娠有复发风险。
